TRUST

​“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight paths.” Psalm 3:5,6

Are there days when the list of things that are not going right is growing? Do you work harder to overcome the malady. Lets face it, you’re stuck. I know the feeling, it happens to me. The effective completion of things on my ‘TO DO” list is just not getting done; I’m stuck!

I need things to go better. I need a better focus, a straight path forward. The best way to get a straight path is to slow down, take a deep breath and refocus. Often in this quiet moment a verse comes to mind and it is the Psalm above about trusting.​Am I trusting in the God who loves me and desires the very best for me? Am I willing to follow the path where he promises to lead me. Remember he leads by still waters (see the LORDS Prayer, Psalm 23). If this is so, I need to be still and acknowledge him and seek the straight path ahead he offers.

As we TRUST him to direct our walk with him ~ it is inherent that we follow. It works. Give it a try.

“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” Psalm 46:10
